Berlínská ministryně sportu Iris Sprangerová uvedla, že město chce uspořádat udržitelné olympijské a paralympijské hry na zmodernizovaných již existujících sportovištích. První možností je rok 2036, tedy na výročí sto let od prvních berlínských her, dalšími variantami jsou roky 2040 a 2044.
Vzhledem k tomu, že plány na kandidaturu jsou dosud jen v počáteční fázi, představila Sprangerová jen málo detailů. „Musíte být trpěliví,“ řekla novinářům. Ministryně nicméně naznačila, že plážový volejbal by se mohl hrát u Braniborské brány a využit by mohl být také vodní kanál v Grünau, kde se závodilo už v roce 1936.

Snaha o pořádání nákladné akce může nicméně narazit u místních obyvatel. Iniciativa „NOlympia Berlin“ oznámila svůj plán nasbírat dostatek podpisů k tomu, aby o kandidatuře rozhodovalo referendum. U všelidového hlasování už dříve ztroskotala snaha Mnichova o pořádání zimních her v roce 2022 a kandidatura Hamburku na letní hry v roce 2024.
Sprangerová uvedla, že je proti referendu a dává přednost „dialogu mezi stranami. Ne pouze ‚ano‘ nebo ‚ne‘, ale aby veřejnost věděla, co skutečně plánujeme.“
Berlín kandidaturu s podporou čtyř spolkových zemí představí do konce měsíce Německé konfederaci olympijských sportů (DOSB). Vlastní kandidatury také plánují Mnichov, Hamburk a spolková země Severní Porýní-Vestfálsko. Finální rozhodnutí o tom, která německá kandidatura se bude o hry ucházet a na který rok, by mělo padnout nejpozději na podzim příštího roku.
Od olympijských her v roce 1936 si německý nacistický režim vedený Adolfem Hitlerem sliboval, že potvrdí teorii o rasové nadřazenosti. Místo toho však Hitler sledoval, jak americký černošský atlet Owens získal ve sprintech a skoku do dálky celkem čtyři zlaté medaile.
V roce 2028 se olympijské hry budou konat v Los Angeles, o čtyři roky později v Brisbane.

The future Hall of Famer informed the Pittsburgh Steelers that he intends to sign a deal with them and will participate in minicamp next week, FOX Sports' Jay Glazer confirmed Thursday.As Rodgers' free agency dragged on for three months, it was expected that Rodgers would eventually end up in Pittsburgh.

Carlo Ancelotti’s Brazil debut sees side record just three total shots in underwhelming draw at Ecuador
Brazil may be under new management with Carlo Ancelotti taking over, but that doesn't mean that some of the same problems don't remain following a 0-0 draw with Ecuador. Ancelotti shook up the squad as Casemiro returned to the Brazil starting XI, which was a massive boon to the defense of the Selecao, but they weren't able to finish their own chances. Facing Ecuador, it's tough to score, but Brazil's attack, especially with Vinicius Junior, is expected to overwhelm teams in the long run. But despite the changes, Casemiro was their most dangerous attacker, hitting the post during the match. Brazil only took three shots, putting two on target, while Ecuador took seven, putting three on target. Pervis Estupinan especially had good chances that almost ended in goals for Ecuador, but where things are more positive is that Brazil didn't concede.Most […]
Paige Bueckers injury: Wings’ No. 1 draft pick to miss third consecutive game due to concussion
Paige Bueckers, the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 WNBA Draft, has been ruled out for the Dallas Wings' matchup against the Los Angeles Sparks on Friday. This will be the third consecutive missed game for Bueckers, who was placed in the concussion protocol on May 30. Bueckers was a partial participant in the Wings' practice on Thursday. She was limited to non-contact work and shooting drills, per Grant Afseth. The soonest Bueckers could return is on Sunday against the Minnesota Lynx. Bueckers last appeared in the Wings' loss to the Chicago Sky on May 29, but it's unclear exactly when she suffered a concussion. "You know, she didn't really say anything. And then yesterday, after the game, she said she was feeling like she had a headache," Wings coach Chris Koclanes said after Bueckers was placed in the concussion protocol. "And […]
Shedeur Sanders hasn’t played in the NFL with the Cleveland Browns and is already involved in a trade to compete in the same division as Cam Ward
Shedeur Sanders trade rumors are heating up, even though he hasn't played a single snap in the NFL with the Cleveland Browns. The former Colorado Buffaloes star is already making headlines due to one of the most absurd and premature NFL trade rumors circulating.Travis Kelce gets nervous as Shaquille O'Neal plays a Taylor Swift audio in front of Jason KelceThe quarterback situation within the Browns isn't necessarily complicated, but there's still significant uncertainty because it remains unclear who will be the starting quarterback for Week 1 of the 2025 NFL season.Shedeur Sanders to the Indianapolis Colts?That's the scenario proposed by Max Dible of Heavy.com, who suggests a potential Shedeur Sanders trade where the Cleveland Browns would send him and a fourth-round draft pick to the Indianapolis Colts in exchange for Anthony Richardson, a quarterback who has struggled significantly during his […]
Is Arch Manning the Colts’ next big star? Rumors swirl about a strategic tanking plan involving Daniel Jones
The Indianapolis Colts are in the eye of the storm following the recent injury of quarterback Anthony Richardson, who suffered inflammation in the AC joint of his right shoulder-the same injury that led him to undergo surgery in 2023. According to reports, Richardson will be out at least until training camp, leaving Daniel Jones as the starting quarterback during minicamp practices. But what's really stirring up buzz on social media and among analysts is the theory that the Colts may be planning a strategic "tanking" to secure a high pick in the 2026 draft-with the name Arch Manning, the young Texas prodigy, as the ultimate target. Deion Sanders had to step out of line to defend Shedeur Sandders from those talking behind his backThe idea that the Colts might let Daniel Jones-a quarterback with a history of ups and downs-lead […]

We have committees that are already talking about it. But my sense is, at that meeting, they're gonna give direction to me and my colleagues at the league office that we should continue to explore it," Silver said.Silver said Thursday that he's […]
